- Hello.

Yeah, she's a young beauty, all right.

Harmon, Kim hasn't done

very much modeling before.

I told her it didn't matter.

No, no. That doesn't matter.

We're just looking for a fresh, uh...

a fresh face.

Well, I don't really know

what this is all about.

What kind of modeling is this?

Well, you folks probably wanna talk

about this privately.

- Kim, I'll wait in your house for you, all right?

- OK.

Well?

Is there anything else?

Mmm-hmm.

You'll do just fine.

Mr. Harmon,

I really don't think I can do this.

Oh, no. Now you let me decide that, huh?

Uh, come around here. Let me see your legs.

My legs?

You know, your legs, gams, stems.

Your lower extremities? Legs.

Nothing to be ashamed of.

Even some of my best friends have legs.

Look, I don't know if this is right.

What's this all about?

OK, OK. I'm sorry if I

gave you the wrong idea.

Look, here's the deal. I

have this job to shoot.

It's a glamour photograph of shoes

and legs are important.

Now, this job should take, 0h,

about an hour, and it pays $50 in cash.

Now may I please see

whether you have legs or two fence posts

so I can tell whether

I even need you for the job?

- $50?

- In cash.

OK...

Let's make pictures.

OK, now, Kim, hold it.

That's it. Don't smile. OK.

That's it, Kim.

OK, now. Let's have, uh...

let's see. Just one more.

How about the leg up on the chair there?

Put it up.

- Like this?

- Yeah, that's right.

Point your toes.

OK.

Now hold it.

That's the girl.

Well, that's it for the night.

You know, Kim?

You're a very pretty girl.

And for being so nice and a good girl,

here's your lollipop.

You mean that's all there is? I'm through?

That's all there is to it.

- Unless maybe, uh...

- Unless what?

Well, uh...

Unless...

No, no. You wouldn't...

wouldn't be interested in that.

Sure I'm interested.

I love working with you, Harmon.

You're so creative.

And, gee, I do need the money.

Yeah, that's what Sandra said.

College or something like that, isn't it?

Well, I'll tell ya about the shot.

I, uh... I don't know if you'd be interested

in it, but it'll pay another $50.

Of course I'm interested. Tell me.

Well, it's, uh, just bathing suit stuff.

Oh...

On the beach? What?

Uh, yeah. On the beach, uh...

You know, in a studio...

You know, glamour... glamour shots.

It's, uh...

It's for a guy who wants to make a, uh,

a glamour calendar, that's all.

I just don't know.

My father wouldn't like it.

Yeah, well, that's OK. Forget it.

You know, there's plenty of girls around.

It's not like you're leaving me

in a hole or anything.

I'll do it.

OK.

Saturday, 10 o'clock.

Another $50?

I'm sure proud of you, Kim.

You're really salting it away.

Herschell Gordon Lewis

Herschell Gordon Lewis (June 15, 1926 – September 26, 2016) was an American filmmaker, best known for creating the "splatter" subgenre of horror films. He is often called the "Godfather of Gore" (a title also given to Lucio Fulci), though his film career included works in a range of exploitation film genres including juvenile delinquent films, nudie-cuties, two children's films and at least one rural comedy. On Lewis' career, AllMovie wrote: "With his better-known gore films, Herschell Gordon Lewis was a pioneer, going farther than anyone else dared, probing the depths of disgust and discomfort onscreen with more bad taste and imagination than anyone of his era." more…
